Kanye West officially has more Top 40 hits on Billboard's Hot 100 than Michael Jackson. Previously, West was tied with Jackson and Four Seasons' singer Frankie Valli. However, due to his part on Schoolboy Q's "That Part", he has surpassed the other two artists. His 40th Top 40 hit puts him 10th all time.

Complex reports, "Q's "That Part" jumped from No. 42 to No. 40 on this week's Hot 100 charts. And because West was featured on the Blank Face single, he's jumped into the top 10 male artists for most Top 40 hits. Other rappers such as Jay Z, Drake, and Lil Wayne are also included in the list, but none have been able to beat out the King of Rock 'n' Roll, who has twice as many hits as West."

Kanye West's Saint Pablo Tour is set to begin August 25th in Indianapolis, Indiana. From there, the concert series will criss-cross North America making stops in Toronto, New York City, Atlanta, Chicago, Oakland, and many more. The tour will come to an end on November 1st in Los Angeles. No details have been made available about who will be joining West on tour.
